Hey Family,
Sorry that I was not
able to write much last week because of transfers. So Sister
Roberts and I was doubled out of our area, so
Sunday/ Monday was full of packing.
Sunday
was so hard for me to say goodbye to everyone but what hurt the
most is saying goodbye to David, Davida, and Lisa. They balled their
eyes out and told us that we have changed their lives. I told them that
they have also changed mine. I love them so much and will miss them! I
am now in Lake Elsinore in the Wildomar Ward and my new companion is
Sister Greeff which sounds like grief! She is from West Valley Utah and
she has been out for 15 months (we are the complete opposites on the
mission time line).
"I AM GOING ON A ADVENTURE!!!!" (Guess what movie that came out of?)
This week has been crazy because we were both doubled into this area
with nothing but our bags and the keys to our car/ apartment. The elders
before us did not organize or clean after themselves and it made our
life more interesting this week. Our first day here we got attacked by
dogs but we survived with no harm! It was actually funny because before
the attack, we were talking about our scary dog experiences we have had
on the mission. This week Sister Greeff also got the plague which made
it challenging but worth the challenge. We picked up a new investigator
while walking named David. I guess I seem to find David's alot.
He was fishing which made it easy to talk to him about fish and about
Christ. Thanks Dad for teaching me the ropes or may I say the fish
strings of fishing! Later this week I was able to go out with another
Sister who is not under the plague to teach David the Restoration. The
lesson went amazing and he wants to be baptized!
Through
all the challenges of not knowing the area it has been an adventure and I
LOVE IT! Adventures seem to come in many forms, some bigger than other
but they all do and carry one thing with them and its learning. I
have learned so much and I can't wait to continue to learn on my
adventure here in the mission but especially in Wildomar.
